LHD Action Group Hold Another Protest

Saturday, 8 October 2022 11:24

By Ross Lindsay

Newbridge residents against plans for 30 modular homes.

Another protest is being held in Newbridge over plans for modular homes to house Ukrainian refugees in Lakeside Park.

The protest at Lakeside Park is because residents are unhappy over the proposal to build 30 modular homes in a Greenpark area of their estate.

The protesters say they were told the accommodation for up to 100 Ukrainian refugees would be temporary, but now say they've been misled by the Government.

LHD Action Group spokesperson Noirin O'Shea says they need their local amenity and won't stop talking.
